    I only care because if the price is going to be the same with or without the coin, I can sell the coin for a few dollars and recoup a tiny bit of the cost :)

    I want that Exhaust coin koed. I'm not paying over $25ish for a coin, let alone $1500ish.

    The figure release hasn't been in question, especially since it's easy money for TakaraTomy. Some of us DO collect the coins, which have already been discontinued once in lieu of the pewter figures. There's typically more options to buy a figure without a coin anyways.

    Sorry for the thread-cromancy when there’s no news, but just realized Takara missed a trick by not including a second, orange missile launcher with this guy.

    Would’ve been a nice victory homage.

    Edit: Also, I totally forgot I preordered this dude lol

    I have to admit, I am very tempted to pick this figure. I never double dip on molds (it's one of my rules) and MP20 is my absolute favorite MP. I have little interest in the toon deco, but am tempted to get it just for the mold

    That’s what I always wanted! And the only reason I’d want to pick up Mp-20+!

    Seems like that is an easy fix with orange paint.

    Just got an email from Amazon Japan saying this beauty's release has been delayed to March 1st. Bummer, but it's not too much later!

    Good thing Shockwave+ turned out so bitchin! He'll hold me over till March fo sho. Also, if there was any doubt about Wheeljack's white being nearly fully painted for this + release, Prowl+'s more extensive paint job (inner boots and feet) and Shockwave's nearly full paint job erased it. Cannot wait for this guy!

    But, he could come out February 26 since they give a window of 2/26/2019 - 3/1/2019. Well at least I don't have to worry about him adding to my holiday spending.

    Generally, I've liked these "Plus" versions. The more bland toon based deco looked great on the older, more detailed molds but this guy? This guy looks as good as the Combiner Wars Wheeljack.... Meaning it looks like bland shit. The figure loses so much in this lesser "Plus" version that the previous ones gained from. Nope, I am not excited for this just like all the other new MPs coming out.
